Extraordinary Groups: How ordinary teams achieve amazing results
Why do some groups achieve amazing results while most others do not? What do extraordinary groups have in common that sorts them from all the rest? What can be done to create these terrific results more often?

Eight Indicators of an Extraordinary Group
As consultants, we have invested years in working with groups in organizations. We share a curiosity about what makes some groups fantastic and others not. We’ve seen groups soar to high performance sometimes in because of our help, and often in spite of our help! What is it that makes for the “magic” that transforms some groups we’ve worked with? And, can we capture just a bit of the magic and take it to other groups? Those questions were the focus of our four year study of sixty extraordinary groups. That study led us to conclusions that altered the way we work with groups. We will share some of what we learned here.
